In the ice cave, somewhere within the main chamber of Abyss, a group of people were resting. From the state of their bodies, where one could clearly see bloodstains and wounds covering their entire body, it looked like the group had gone through an extremely harsh battle. Some of them looked very tired and disheveled, but were still trying to be on guard, while others just straight off laid on the icy ground, unbothered by their surroundings and the piercing cold ground.
After fighting ceaselessly against the countless waves of gargoyles for a whole day, the group finally managed to find a giant ice cave where they could rest and regain their energy. Before the expedition began, these 160 people were filled with contempt and impudence, as if there was nothing that could stand and block their way.
